Update & Reading List- September 9th

So I kind of disappeared from the blogosphere for about a week, but this picture sums up what each day at work was like this past week:

And this is what it was like each night when I got home and tried to read:

I pretty much accomplished zero reading this past week. I did get the house cleaned and my sister off to college, but when it was all done, I had neither the energy nor the enthusiasm to read or update my blog. However, I'm hoping that this week I will get back on track with updates and reviews (which means actually reading something so I can do reviews). My reading list for this week is currently:

There are three reasons I'm going to read this book. First, my sister's reading the book for college, so I thought I'd read it too, and we could discuss it. Second, it's C.S. Lewis, and I love him. But I've read very little of his books beyond Narnia and the Space trilogy. Third, it's a mythology retelling, and I am ALWAYS excited for that genre. Cannot wait!

I don't usually love chick-lit, but this one is focused on food and cooking, which I love. So I'm giving this book a chance, and I'm hoping it turns out great.

A Re-read.

Not sure which book I will be re-reading yet, but I always find that when coming out of a reading slump or when just needing to find an energy boost, re-reading an old favorite is the perfect solution.
